19. Install the final elevator clevis and control horn.
Use low-tack tape to hold the elevator centered for
the next step.
20. Secure the two wheel collars onto the final elevator
pushrods using two 3mm x 8mm machine screws and a
#2 Phillips screwdriver. It will be necessary to trim (and
possibly bend) the final elevator pushrod to prevent it
from hitting the pushrod connector. Once complete coat
this entire joint with 6-minute epoxy.
Important
: You must use threadlock on the two
3mm x 8mm machine screws to prevent them from
vibrating loose. If they do, you may lose control of
your aircraft. Make sure you use threadlock
on these two screws.
